Think you have no waist? Nonsense! It
may not be as defined as you’d like; use a belt to create the illusion that it
is. |
|
|
|
To create a
longer body line, choose belts that blend with the colour of your clothes (less
eye-catching). |
|
|
|
Dark is more
slimming than light and may look more expensive. Matt is more slimming than
shiny. |
|
|
|
To create a
streamlined effect, look for matching buckle and keepers. |
|
|
|
To bring the
eye to the centre of the body, choose a bold buckle – another slimming trick.
Worn with an open jacket, this is even more effective. |
|
|
|
If you have
a small waist, try a contrasting or metallic belt. |
|
|
|
Short waist?
- go for a narrow belt and try to match it to your top half to elongate the
body. |
|
|
|
Long waist?
- go for a wide belt and try to match it to your bottom half to elongate the
legs. |
|
|
|
This
season’s most innovative look is a skinny belt over a fine knit long line
cardigan. Covers a multitude of sins without losing your silhouette. |
|
|
|
Don’t cinch
your belts too tightly or your stomach will bulge out. A properly fitting belt
is one where the middle hole is the best fit. |
|
|
|
If you have
large hips choose a belt at least 1 inch wide with a narrow buckle as the focal
point. |
|
|
|
If you have
large breasts choose a more delicate and narrow belt. |
